I don't think I've invented a new language. The Find and Replace commands
use standard syntax of C and related languages for representing
nonprinting characters in strings. I made one addition based on an idea
from C#, using an @ prefix to indicate that a string should be understood
literally rather than interpreted with possible tokens.
EdSharp supports regular expressions in three commands: Replace with
Regular Expression (Control+Shift+R), Extract with Regular Expression
(Control+Shift+E), and Yield (count) with Regular Expression
(Control+Shift+Y).
Regards,
Jamal
